Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The goal of this study is to implement instruments that would increase the treating physician's awareness of the necessary tuberculosis screening when starting a new patient on infliximab (Remicade) therapy who has not reacted sufficiently to disease-modifying preparations, including methotrexate.

Infliximab -Rheumatoid Arthritis Participants

Infliximab

Intervention Type BIOLOGICAL

Patients with active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) confirmed with American College of Rheumatology (ACR) criteria could take part in the project if they did not respond sufficiently to disease-modifying products, including methotrexate, received Infliximab administration as intravenous (IV) infusion over a period of two hours. Dosage and infusion intervals were employed in accordance to the Summary of Product Characteristics (SmPC): 5 mg/kg body weight at week 0 of

Infliximab therapy with additional infusions of 5 mg/kg at week 2
